Just realize they take longer to carb and condition than a 12 ouncer. The 3 weeks @70 degrees that we talk about here is for average gravity 12 ounce bottles to carb up. It can be a week to two longer for bombers.

Are there any special cleaning/sanitizing steps? Have been interested in using these types of bottles.

Which ones, Mr Beer 1L?

Here is what I do with all of my bottles. As soon as I use them, I then rinse them out with hot water 2 or 3 times. I normally will then soak them in sanitizer for an hour or so in the sink when i have a lot, then let them dry. Then on bottling day, I shoot them with hot water using my jet washer, then using my sanitizer cleaner rinser, where you push the bottle down on it, and it shoots sanitizer into it. Then shake it out as well as i can and fill it.
